Product Description
Scotch® Cushion Lock™ Protective Wrap is an expanding honeycomb paper wrap that replaces plastic bubble wrap for packing, shipping, moving and storage. It starts flat on the roll and, as you pull it, opens into a cushioning honeycomb that expands to about 1.5 times its length and up to 60 times its thickness. Advanced 3M Self-Locking Technology lets the wrap grip itself as you wrap, so it holds without tape and immobilizes items for nested protection inside the box.
Cushion Lock uses up to 60% less material than 3/16 inch plastic bubble to fill a cubic foot box, expands about twice as thick as 3/16 inch bubble and takes up over 80% less storage space. It is made from 100% recycled kraft paper and is curbside recyclable, so you can skip the packing peanuts and plastic bubble. 3M ship tests included glass vases, jars and ceramic mugs. It works best for items up to about 10 pounds; it absorbs shock and vibration but does not protect against water, crushing or piercing, and because paper is slightly abrasive, cover extremely delicate finishes first.

Country of Origin: United States.
Instructions
- Hold the wrap on a flat surface with one hand and pull horizontally with the other to stretch and expand it, an arm's length at a time, until the honeycomb walls stand up (about 150% of the original length).
- Pull evenly with both hands or across the whole width; pulling from one small point can tear it.
- Set the item on the expanded wrap and wrap it 360 degrees, three to four times, keeping the material expanded as you go.
- For fragile items, build up at least 2 inches of cushioning on every side, and more for heavier or more fragile pieces. Wrap sharp edges until they no longer show through.
- Tear the wrap off the roll by hand. No tape is needed; the wrap locks onto itself.
- Pack snugly so the wrapped item is slightly larger than the box and the cushioning compresses a little when the box is closed.
- To unpack, tear the wrap off by hand and recycle it with your cardboard.

hot melt rubber (synthetic)
Offers the widest range of application flexibility available. Exhibits excellent processing performance whether manually or automatically applied. Has superior tensile strength, adhesion properties and holding force which ensures consistent, reliable seals. Hot melt adhesive will bond faster to a surface which is referred to as quick-grab or quick-stick. It typically has higher tack (will feel stickier to the touch), but is also softer. It has lower heat resistance, shear resistance, and sometimes UV resistance than an acrylic adhesive. NOTE: it is called hot melt because the adhesive is applied hot by the manufacturer and then hardens as it cools (you do not need to apply heat to the tape yourself).
natural rubber
Properties are similar to that of hot melt rubber, but natural rubber often holds where other adhesives won't (recycled fibers, dust, cold, heat and heavy loads). It provides good overall adhesion and moisture resistance.
acrylic
Offer excellent performance, especially for applications in temperatures less than 40°F and greater then 120°F. It provides excellent clarity, has high shear strength, is usually more permanent/durable even when exposed to moisture, and it ages well over extended periods in fluorescent and sunlight. Since it remains clear for the life of the application and does not yellow over time it is ideal for applications such as sealing white cartons. While it has good initial adhesion it does take 24-48 hours to cure and to achieve its maximum bond strength (has gradual adhesion buildup). Another difference between hot melt rubber and acrylic adhesive is if you fold tape over making the two adhesive sides touch the acrylic adhesive will remain attached to the carrier (e.g. paper, film) while a hot melt adhesive will stick to itself and pull off of the carrier. It is the best choice for clarity, UV resistance and aging characteristics.
silicone
Is great for extreme temperature applications since silicone adhesive can work in continuous operating temperatures from -100°F to 500°F. They also exhibit good chemical resistance, retain electrical properties, and remove cleanly with little or no residue.
zinc oxide
Zinc oxide based adhesive formula is a skin-friendly adhesive which is commonly used on sports medicine tapes.
Thickness, AKA caliper or gauge, refers to the distance from one surface of a tape backing, or adhesive, to the other.
1 mil = 1/1000 of an inch
Examples: 1/16 inch = 62.5 mils; 1/32 inch = 31.25 mils
Lower gauge gloves are heavier - have thicker construction, fewer stiches knitted per inch and offer less dexterity.
Higher gauge gloves are lighter - have thinner/finer construction, more stitches knitted per inch and offer more dexterity.
Gloves offered typically runs from 7 to 18 (12 and 13 are in the middle of the scale).
